Hi,
I'm now up to section 5.33.1 (compiling texinfo) and the configure
script gives me a strange error:
checking for perl... /tools/bin/perl
checking Perl version and Encode module... no
configure: error: perl >= 5.7.3 with Encode required by Texinfo.
A quick search revealed that someone has had this problem in the past.
But in his case it seemed like the problem was that he was not logged
in as the LFS user and therefore his PATH variable was not set
correctly (thus he was using the host's perl). However, in my case my
PATH variable is set correctly and it is looking at perl in
/tools/bin. So what could be the problem?
The command "perl -version" returns:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
